[OpenAFS] 'vos' command dos not finish, file service works ok (sort of)

[Harald Barth]

This is your vldb, isn't it?

Something is hung there because it says all the time:

I am currently managing write trans 0.18

and

There are write locks held
There is an active write transaction
Transaction tid is 0.0

My guess is your vldb is "read only" which prevents any vldb changes,
including starting new fileservers who want to register their address.
I don't know why it is like that or how it got there, but while it is
like that nothing will change.

Harald.
